My first hire at Blind cost me way more than a salary. It cost me 52 hours of filings, registrations and portals I didn't understand (not to mention the headaches and stress). I priced it out on the whiteboard (of course). @Mercury Payroll runs payroll, benefits and state compliance from your Mercury account, so you can get back to building. This is a paid partnership with Mercury.

Replying to @wacom
@wacom a little disappointed to find out that my Intuos Pro is no longer supported on Mac OS Tahoe 26.6.2. Anyone else having this issue? Don't feel like buying a replacement since there isn't anything wrong with the tablet.

Can I get your help in voting for my non-panel talk? SXSW is filled with panels of questionable value. How do I know? I've been a part of them, and I've been in the audience plenty of times. Let's try something different. participate.sxsw.com/flow/sx…

Al gave everyone the same toolkit. Now the bottleneck is taste. The person who knows good from average will beat the person who can’t discern the difference.

Editing is almost always the most time consuming and critical part of video production. I can use all the help I can get. Check it.
Today we're launching the first agentic editor that understands your conversation.

There’s a reason why @RiversidedotFM is the de facto standard when it comes to podcast recording platforms, and why I won’t use anything else—it’s the best. I’ve trusted it to capture hundreds of conversations with notable guests, authors and thought leaders. I’m not going to take that risk with some other platform. • No blotchy videos with compression artifacts • No glitchy internet hiccups to deal with • Separate, clean audio channels • Easy to use • Super fast syncing • Text based editing tools makes creating short form content a breeze Comment “Riverside” and I’ll send you a checklist to use to go from recording, to published content in one place. #riversidepartner

We live in the age… where my 2 adult sons have "dropped" out of college, launched their own language app by vibe coding—all self-taught. I watch them work late into the night, doing things that I barely understand. It's a good time to be alive.

In the age of AI, the ability to do something slowly will be the new luxury. Craft will matter more. People will pay more knowing that an artisan made a beautiful object vs a 3d printed version of the exact same thing.

People who don’t have the wisdom to see the real value in people who have life experience (read older) don’t deserve their gifts. Their loss in my opinion.
